I have been asked by an LC colleague to find out about producing milk during pregnancy. She was asked by a local doctor. The woman is age 27, first pregnancy, 27 weeks pregnant. Meds: long term Keflex (an antibiotic) for a urinary tract infection, occasional Ventolin for asthma. She is otherwise well, no signs of premature labour. She is leaking milk from both breasts and needs to wear breast pads all the time. She is a midwife and recently had a letdown at work which produced enough milk to be "very embarrasing". We have come across only one case of this in a Primip before. Any ideas? Is it a cause for concern? How common is this? We checked several texts but couldn't find anything useful. I would appreciate responses ASAP. Please mention "milk in pregnancy" in the subject line as I am too busy at the moment to do much more than scan digest topics. Thanks in advance.
